Cats of which you can adopt from a shelter located directly in the middle of a cul-de-sac or buy directly from a breeder of which whose abilities and-slash-or moral codes are questionable are generally lactose intolerant contrary to popular belief and will probably poop their pants if given any form of dairy including milk, cheese, and yogurt.
The last example, couldn't milk be considered a modifier of to drink? It answers the question what does the cat likes to drink, so couldn't it be broken down to simply be saying "the cat likes to drink."
idk if this will help any of y'all but this is how I sorted it:
The cat that I brought home from the shelter in the middle of the village where a merchant was murdered on the only snowy day last year likes to drink fermented milk from the Swedish cow that we imported from Austria at considerable expense.
Subject noun: the cat
What about the cat: that i brought home
Where did you bring the cat home from? The shelter
Where was the shelter? In the middle of the village
What about the village: where a merchant was murdered
When was the merchant murdered: on the only snowy day last year
Preciate verb: drinks
Object: milk
What kind of milk: fermented milk
Any fermented milk: from the swedish cow
Any swedish cow?: that we imported from austria
Was it cheap or expensive?: at a considerable expense
One good way of thinking about this is: "The what (subject) will what (predicate)." In other words, the subject, or the what the paragraph is about, DESERVES a reaction or conclusion. In the Elbert's commentary example, the entire "what" is Elbert's commentary, and the whole purpose was to convey to us that it was entertaining. All the other information was helpful, I guess (as a modifier).
Something that works for me (most of the time) is disregarding anything that is within a prepositional phrase (beginning with of, from, in, on, at, by, for, etc..), which makes cleaning up the sentence and locating the subject/verb/object much easier.

Is anyone having a hard time with seeing the video?

Nailed it
The way I understood the Scorsese sentence is similar to a reaction video to a reaction video of an apology video.

Kernel: the cat drinks milk.
Why isn’t “the cat likes milk.” which "drink" is a modifier of what cats want to do with the milk?
Why isn't the last one "the cat likes to drink." Isn't milk modifying drink?

The Xhibit Meme!!! Showing your age sir! lolol
he can't keep getting away with this lmao
so, technically, with X modifying the modifying modifier, that's makes him a modifier too, right?

in the closed captioning, one of the "cat"s was misspelled as "car", and I thoroughly enjoyed the meme
Why isn't it "The cat likes milk"? Why is there an extra verb (to drink)?
I love the early 2010's meme
@J.Y, your cat wears pants?
Why does it not simply reduce to, The cat likes to drink, with milk being a modifier.
Remember guys... cats CANNOT drink milk do not give your cats milk!!
#help, can you use this to basically find the main point?
That cat is living a good life lol
